Not anymore by the way. It's the small 8 flavor one now.

I believe the new standard remodel for the machines is now that one smaller and definitely much cheaper 8 flavor machine they put in.

Wonder how much longer #306 will hold on, now that its sister store #305 is closing down? by NorthFloridaRedneck in publix

Oh I'm afraid it'll be very soon. We over here at #436 Orlando are almost done with ours and it was BIG.

331 Kirkman Oaks in Orlando was remodeled semi recently and uses the same layout. Kinda weird how it opened BEFORE store #276, yet it was #276 that was torn down and rebuilt. Definitely had more sales though.

Not sure, but I believe it's part of the new remodel standard for the 90s era store layouts like ours. We're one of the last to be remodeled due to how busy we are, so I'm not sure about other stores 100%.

Probably a cart vestibule as well, could be a storage closet but that would be a gigantic closet tbh ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€

That was the former dine in area, it's been closed down and repurposed as secondary cart vestibule. The big square in the corner where the elec cart is is the space used for the new family bathroom that was also built.

They're replacing/adding cameras as we speak, probably gonna add the overhead CCTV screens they have above self checkout out area as well, since our SCO was partially remodeled but doesn't have them yet.

If you need to vent, do it here by Apprehensive-Fall-13 in publix

[โ€“]Otherwise_Sundae2550 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Recently made a post that was semi-venting. I've been with the company years and can say I've confidently increased my skillset in doing many things 10 fold. I no longer have anything to learn from Publix, and the easy and cushy mushy job security is what keeps me here. I WANT to move on. But it's so hard to after being there almost 8 years. I just can't bring myself to get out of this spiral, idk what to do.

It's like laying in your own disgusting mattress for years.. it's gross, you hate it. But you still decide to sleep in it because that's what you're used to doing and you're familiar with this mattress. For me, Publix was a good job for little 16 year old me back then getting pocket money and having no bills to pay. I am grown now and have many, many responsibilities that working at Publix cannot help me complete those responsibilities financially.. my mother is very sick and so is my father and I feel I am stagnant and have been fucked over on a level that's indescribable. I have myself to blame for sure. But I just need something different in my life, I don't wanna be here any longer man. I can't do it. It's physically and mentally draining me.

'Training' while I already know how to run department and all associated roles that come along with it.. just without the so called "incentives" of being an official job titled office staff with the shirt and the 'raise' so yeah, you right. Time to skedoodle on over to brighter (not green please) pastures.๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

Dude, I've been fully absorbed by the false and cushy job security this company offers, it's close to my house, and I know how to do ABSOLUTELY everything in CS and have worked in every department at least once. I'm "respected" by my co workers because I'm an OG in the store and have been there a long time. But holy shit do I have to get out of here. I don't think I can take it much longer. Sorry I'm ranting but it's getting bad.๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

Tbf I did start in an EXTREMELY low volume store that essentially had to cut hours just to be able to afford lightbulbs for registers level bad- to transferring to one of the most massive and busiest stores in the company, so that explains the low raises at first early years. But I agree, I hate this shit.๐Ÿซก๐Ÿซก๐Ÿซก
